Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 11, Page 10615-10624, November 2026.Experimental setup for dsRNA feeding in Brassicogethes aeneus to evaluate the effect of a synthetic polymer nanocarrier on RNAi efficiency. The experiment assessed whether the nanocarrier enhances RNAi after oral dsRNA delivery. (a) Stability of dsRNA–nanocarrier complexes was tested in simulated gut conditions. (b) Gene expression of αCOP and dre4 was

Herbicide Metabolic Resistance in Poaceae Plants via the GA‐GID1/DELLA‐DOF2‐P450s Module
Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 57, 14 October 2026.Plant hormone signaling modulates herbicide resistance in Echinochloa crus‐galli. The GA–DELLA–DOF2 cascade directly activates P450 detoxification genes in two Poaceae species, uncovering a core mechanism of metabolic herbicide resistance. ABSTRACT Barnyard grass (Echinochloa crus‐galli) is one of the world's most important weeds, and the evolution of ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene‐Based Resistive Leaf Wetness Sensors for Pesticide Spray Deposition
Global Challenges, Volume 10, Issue 10, October 2026.A laser‐induced graphene leaf wetness sensor is fabricated by CO2 laser‐patterning interdigitated electrodes on flexible polyimide and adding silver‐paste contacts through a shadow mask. Calibration with multiple pesticide formulations and tap water shows decreasing resistance with increasing deposited volume, while spray tests demonstrate close ...
